Butterfly Symbolism

What does the butterfly symbolise? The butterfly is closely linked to change and transformation. When you consider its life cycle—egg, larva (caterpillar), pupa, and adult butterfly—it’s clear that the butterfly is in a constant state of transformation. This is a significant aspect of the butterfly’s message, but it also conveys other important meanings, such as:

  • Profound transformation in your life
  • Navigating through life’s cycles
  • Renewal and rebirth
  • Embracing a lightness of being and playfulness
  • Rising above earthly matters and connecting with emotional or spiritual realms
  • Exploring the world of the soul and psyche
  • Finding joy and lightness in life
  • The butterfly stands as a powerful symbol of transformation. When a butterfly appears as a spirit guide in your life, it may indicate that you are experiencing or about to undergo significant change.

Bring good luck to yourself by wearing butterflies in your ears...

Meanings of different colours of butterflies

  • White butterflies: Purity and peace. The presence of your deceased loved one is here to protect and guide you.
  • Orange butterflies: An opportunity or a change is coming. 
  • Yellow butterflies: Joy, creativity and big changes!   
  • Red butterflies: Energy is needed. Something huge is coming towards you.
